Wilderness First Aid
This Wilderness First Aid (WFA) course is offered in partnership with our sister organization, Backcountry Medical Training. The 17-hour intensive program is ideal for outdoor enthusiasts and anyone seeking advanced first aid skills or improved disaster preparedness for urban emergencies. Upon successful completion, participants will earn a two-year Wilderness First Aid certification from Backcountry Medical Training, as well as a Washington State-approved Epinephrine Autoinjector & Anaphylaxis Training Certificate.
